Over de Auteur

Samuel Marinus Zwemer was an influential American missionary and a pioneering figure in the field of Islamic studies. He dedicated much of his life to understanding and interpreting Islam, contributing to both theological discourse and cultural exchanges between the West and the Muslim world. Zwemer's passion for the Middle East led him to spend many years in Arabia and other parts of the Islamic world, where he not only worked as a missionary but also conducted extensive research and outreach. His writings, including 'The Moslem Doctrine of God' and 'Topsy-Turvy Land', aimed to educate Western audiences about Islam and its traditions, while also addressing misconceptions.
